Matsudaira Tohong Hotel. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In the conference room, Lin Tao didn't deliberately listen to the conversation between Kent and the American named Mark, but after all, the conference room was only so big, and there was no way to deliberately avoid it.

So the conversation between the two can basically fall into the ears clearly.

It's just that the more he listened, Lin Tao's brows wrinkled more and more.

"Ken, I think this Chinese is right, this work should be made into an animation and not a movie, the editorial office has not discussed this issue at all, I think we need to confirm with the US headquarters what they want to do."

I think both Jonathan and Mr. Stevenson knew that this work could only be maximized by animation, and we couldn't afford to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to make it into another Harry Potter film. ”

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm pretty sure, but it's not my idea alone, is it?"

When Kent heard this, he not only turned his head to look at Lin Tao.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

But Lin Tao was in no mood to laugh now.

He is now quite convinced that there is no agreement within Disney, or that although they have come to talk to him about the copyright of film and television adaptations this time, in fact, the other party has not had a specific plan on this issue at all.

Thinking of this, Lin Tao suddenly felt a little anxious in his heart.

"Kung Fu Panda" was originally a typical Hollywood-style animation film produced by DreamWorks, but in this time and space, DreamWorks has no chance to participate in this work.

Although Disney has indicated its attitude of taking over, Lin Tao is suddenly a little bottomless.

"What the hell the Americans are doing with me?"

He was even a little angry.

Li Weiwei almost immediately noticed the change in the expression between Lin Tao's eyebrows and eyes, and women always seemed to be sensitive and careful.

"Sorry, I'll go out for a while!"

Rise.

Lin Tao walked out without waiting for the other party's nod.

Li Weiwei smiled and walked out, Wang Dongdong was naturally not stupid.

After the three of them went out.

The room was empty.

"Lin Tao!"

"Lin Tao, you wait!"

In the corridor of the hotel, Lin Tao's steps were fast and urgent, and Li Weiwei and Wang Dongdong almost trotted all the way to catch up.

"What's wrong?"

"Are you sure they're Disney representatives? Don't you see that they don't know anything about it, they don't even have a clear plan to shoot.

If Disney has this attitude, why should I hand over the film and television rights to them? Americans think Lao Tzu has never seen money? This is what is going on with me, what the hell!"

Li Weiwei and Wang Dongdong fell silent for an instant and did not speak.

The reason why Disney's people came so quickly this time, if there is really no result at that time, their responsibility is not small.

It's just that Lin Tao's tough attitude is indeed rare.

In fact, they didn't understand where Lin Tao's confidence came from.

The results of "Kung Fu Panda"?

That was just a best-selling book, and it was not enough to prove that there would still be such a market in the film market.

"I don't want to talk to them anymore, so if you talk to him, my request is very simple, I won't talk to them about any issues related to film and television copyright adaptation until they don't have a clear shooting and investment plan, that's my bottom line.

In addition, they were told that this work could only be made into an animation, which was not possible, and I would not talk about it either. ”

After speaking.

Lin Tao went downstairs directly in the surprise on Wang Dongdong and Li Weiwei's faces, and within a moment, there was a unique roar of Gallardo's engine downstairs.

in the hallway.

Li Weiwei and Wang Dongdong looked at each other a little.

"He's always been like this?"

This is the first time Li Weiwei has seen Lin Tao's strength, and the expression on his face is very complicated, similar to anger and unhappiness, but mixed with a little helplessness.

Wang Dongdong also had nothing to say.

Compared with Li Weiwei, he knows Lin Tao better.

Young!

But never be deceived by this face!

Underneath Lin Tao's youthful appearance.

It's strong!

Assertive!

and extraordinarily accurate judgment!

Soon the two were back in the conference room.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Kent, Lin has left, and he doesn't think it's the best time to negotiate with you Disney. ”

"What?

"Mygod!Li, why did he do this? Is this also the habit of you Chinese?"

Li Weiwei was not polite.

Instead, he directly told Lin Tao's original words.

"I'm curious, Mr. Kent, does Disney have a preliminary shooting plan now, if you're not making an animation but a movie, do you have the right people for the director and actors? ”

The foreigner, Kent, immediately had an embarrassed expression on his face.

"This ~ Lee ~ We ~"

Wang Dongdong and Li Weiwei glanced at each other, and suddenly felt that Lin Tao's approach was extremely correct.

Damn!

Lin Tao actually guessed correctly!

The Americans themselves do not have a clear plan for filming!

Negotiations soon stalled.

After Wang Dongdong and Li Weiwei left.

Kent has apparently realized that the Chinese are not threatening them.

"****! Are the Chinese joking?"

"No, Mr. Kent, I don't think they're joking, you must know that they have rejected DreamWorks before, and although that Lin is very young, I can see that he is a very persistent person, just like you. ”

Apparently Kent was pleased with the compliment.

The flushed face soothed slightly.

"So what now?"

As vice president of marketing, Kent had no idea that the planned copyright negotiations, which were not the most important of the plan, would reach an impasse before he came to China.

In fact, this is all the habitual thinking of the Americans.

It is believed that if it is a Hollywood company, as long as it shows a certain sincerity, the Chinese will not refuse, and in fact it is exactly that.

The majority, or the vast majority, will not refuse, and will even compromise on it.

But the object of their negotiation this time was not ordinary people, but Lin Tao.

He knows very well whether and what kind of success "Kung Fu Panda" can succeed in the film market. This essentially eliminates the possibility of gambling.

It's very simple.

He doesn't need to gamble.

Naturally, there is no need to accommodate Hollywood studios.

And as filmmakers, Americans are undoubtedly very aware of the benefits that a good work can bring.

"I think I'm afraid we can only do it on the terms of that Chinese, and if we are like DreamWorks, this trip to China will definitely not have any results, and I am afraid that entering the Chinese market will also be delayed." ”

The atmosphere in the conference room was a bit dreary.

Kent got up and lit a cigarette.

Then with some effort, I pushed open the window of the conference room.

The cacophony outside the window immediately poured into the room.

Mornings are at the busiest time of the city, and the Toko Hotel is located right in the heart of the city, and the vibrancy and vibrancy of the city is amazing.

But what's even more amazing is the huge flow of people on the road outside the window, so it's extremely quiet in a small city in the United States.

"There are too many Chinese!

"Yes, Mr. Kent, China has a population of 1.2 billion people, and the city we're here in now has a population of 1.1 million, and there are hundreds of cities like this in China, and they're all as dynamic as this, and China's economy is growing fast, and I think it won't be long before they're going to have wider roads, more cars, and more entertainment venues. ”

The conversation between the two is somewhat inexplicable and even puzzling.

But Kent knew exactly what Mark meant.

This is a huge market with extraordinary growth and consumption potential, which in time will rival the whole of Europe.

And that young Chinese Lin obviously already has a high popularity and popularity in China.

Last night, the three of them saw a lot of news about Lin Xiaobai and "Kung Fu Panda" on the TV station provided by the hotel.

The latest one is the news that "Kung Fu Panda" has been officially released in Asia.

End of April.

China's Dongjiang Literature Publishing House (which was established at the beginning of the year) has officially signed a publishing contract with a Japanese and South Korean publishing company for Kung Fu Panda.

Surprisingly.

Because Bristol has already made vague statements in Europe about the way the two sides are contractually agreed, the Japanese and Koreans have not been too concerned about the profit-sharing method.

Instead, the publishing contract was formally signed in accordance with the contract drafted by the Oriental Literature Publishing House, after a simple amendment.

Since Dongjiang Literary Society will not be specifically responsible for publishing and sales, but only transfer the publishing rights, it will receive 20% of the sales profits.

Lin Tao and the Japanese and Korean publishing houses he cooperated with will each receive 40% of the sales profits.

Meanwhile.

Dongjiang Literature Publishing House has been approved to sell the bilingual version of Kung Fu Panda overseas, including the entire Southeast Asian and South Asian markets.

The shock of this news is something that Kent cannot ignore.

Because if "Kung Fu Panda" will also be a bestseller in Asia, then the work they are talking about now is very likely to become another "Harry Potter" or "The Lord of the Rings".

The Chinese version of Harry Potter!

The Oriental version of The Lord of the Rings!

If that's the case.

Then Disney must obtain the film and television adaptation rights of this work, and the box office storm set off by "Harry Potter" in Hollywood is coveted even by Disney.

Animated?

That's not a problem at all.

You know, what's Disney's best old business?

(PS="In a word, Xiaobai broke out at least five more today!Three chapters plus two chapters are guaranteed, whether you can do it or not, wait and see.) If I can still move the code at night, the 5,000-word chapter is still the same, as for anti-theft or not, Xiaobai hopes that the subscription data will look a little better, not three or five thousand, but it can't be three or five hundred, and more than half of the people who write a chapter for twenty yuan are pirated, it's too chilling!)
